OL —

Whatever else Carril was (your favorite adjective here), he was not insane. Yet the open question is whether he turned the Celtics down three times, or only twice.

Once he retired, he went immediately to the NBA.

Discuss.

When he declined to take, I believe, the BC job at one point he explained it this way: “maybe it’s because I prefer hamburger to filet mignon.” I think in reference to any potential NBA HC job: “they don’t believe in coach’s rights.” I don’t know if he was ever offered an NBA job.
